The ‘Gijang-gun Overseas Language Training’ was initiated to provide local students with opportunities to improve their English skills and experience global cultures.

This training program included 30 middle school students and 5 responsible chaperones from the area. The students were selected through a rigorous screening process conducted by each school, including overall academic performance, English subject evaluation, and interviews with native English teachers, resulting in a group of outstanding talents.

The training group will participate in various programs aimed at nurturing global talents at ‘Redwood Christian School’ in San Francisco, USA, from January 19 to February 15.

During the language training period, students will gain practical experiences of other cultures through ▲intensive English classes ▲homestay living ▲cultural experience activities ▲visits to American universities. In addition to improving their language skills, they will have a valuable opportunity to broaden their horizons toward the world and plan a wide-ranging future based on self-reliance.

A Gijang-gun official stated, “We will spare no administrative support for the overall event, including safety, until the overseas language training group safely completes the program and returns.”
